    Well, that is pretty much how television seems to think things are...

    I always thought it was weird how in so many shows that are targeted to a nationwide audience how often they seem to just assume some specific subway thing in NYC is something that their audience will instantly get and relate to.

    They think 21% are transgender too.... A lot of propaganda has gone through these people.

    “Transvestigation” is fucking insane and there are a lot of people who are convinced that many celebrities are secretly trans.

    I think it mostly started with disgusting conspiracies about Michelle Obama (they literally believe that Sasha and Malia were kidnapped, even have specific missing children they think they are). Alex Jones and his ilk think Michelle was born Michael.

    This was a thing that developed I think late in his presidency, then it expanded to several other figures. My favorite is Donald Glover as a trans man - I’ll gladly welcome Childish Gambino into my community.

    It’s a serious “Q anon” type mentally ill worldview.

    Donald Glover as a trans man? I'm currious what makes them think that? Either way, dudes a fucking legend and is welcome in any community I'm in.

    Messi

    But I thought only trans women were “cheating” at sports.

    trans men are cheating because they still consider them women, and women aren't allowed to be good at sports.

    it somehow always manages to boil down to misogyny with these people

    I think you’re missing my joke about Messi. He’s one of the best players in soccer/football, and the MAGATs think he’s a trans man? Which would mean he was a woman who is now dominating men’s sport.

    By the looks of it, it's 30% to NYC, 30% to Texas, and 30% to California. So 10% for literally everywhere else in the US. That's gotta be close, right?

    They also believe they are a majority of the world population, which is incredibly obvious if you spend any time online (that theu believe that, not that they are that). Several times when I've said that the US population is 3% of the world population I've gotten replies saying that can't be true or that I and dumb for believing obviously false facts or obvious anti-American propaganda... Absolutely pathetic.
